🚨 Huge Fire Alert Near Llandudno! 🚨
A massive fire has erupted on Cwm Mountain, just behind Maesdu Golf Club near the popular Welsh resort town of Llandudno. Towering flames and billowing smoke are visible from miles away, even reaching places like Abergele and the Conwy Valley!
Firefighters are out in full force with crews from Llandudno, Colwyn Bay, Denbigh, Holywell, Rhyl, and two wildfire units from Abergele working tirelessly to control the blaze. People in the area are strongly advised to steer clear and local residents should shut their windows and doors to keep smoke out.
This alarming incident arrives on the heels of other recent fires in North Wales, including a gorse fire on Anglesey’s Mynydd Bodafon and a blaze in Newborough Forest that disrupted Bank Holiday plans. As the weather cools, Natural Resources Wales is encouraging outdoor-goers to opt for a picnic and shun BBQs to prevent more flare-ups. Remember, one spark is all it takes to set off a devastating wildfire!
Locals have taken to social media to express their concern, with descriptions of smoke clouds looming and the crackling of flames being heard. The authorities emphasize the situation’s seriousness and urge everyone to heed safety warnings.
Stay safe and keep updated! 🚒
